gdb: make add_com_alias accept target as a cmd_list_element
The alias creation functions currently accept a name to specify the target command. They pass this to add_alias_cmd, which needs to lookup the target command by name. Given that: - We don't support creating an alias for a command before that command exists. - We always use add_info_alias just after creating that target command, and therefore have access to the target command's cmd_list_element. ... change add_com_alias to accept the target command as a cmd_list_element (other functions are done in subsequent patches). This ensures we don't create the alias before the target command, because you need to get the cmd_list_element from somewhere when you call the alias creation function. And it avoids an unecessary command lookup. So it seems better to me in every aspect. gdb/ChangeLog: * command.h (add_com_alias): Accept target as cmd_list_element. Update callers.
